“I really want to give everything; I’m incredibly excited,” Lewis Hamilton admitted to *Sky Italia*. “I can’t wait to meet my new team.”

“I’ve kept a low profile in the paddock,” the seven-time champion explained. “Out of respect for my current team, I didn’t want to make anyone uncomfortable. I avoided entering the ‘red zone,’ but very soon, I’ll begin working with Ferrari.”

Reflecting on Ferrari’s strong finish to the season, Hamilton offered congratulations and words of encouragement:
